  • Peeled or cut carrots can last 1 to 2 weeks  in the fridge when kept in moist conditions,  

  • such as stored in an airtight container  with water. Just to make sure to change  

  • out the water every one to two days and  rinse the carrots again before eating.

  • Baby carrots, more sensitive  due to their thin skin,  

  • last about 1 to 1.5 weeks less  than their larger counterparts.

  • Proper storage conditions, including  the right humidity and temperature,  

  • are crucial for extending carrots' shelf life.

  • Additionally, storing them in a ventilated  plastic bag or a container with a lid in  

  • the crisper drawer helps maintain  moisture and prevents drying out.

  • Removing the greens is also advisable as  they can draw moisture from the roots,  

  • leading to quicker spoilage.
